After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King

Chapter 66: Chapter 65: Amazing, Truly Amazing

"Retreated?"

The Gorgon Leader, whose head was topped with sleek, smooth, dense snakes, wondered aloud. ... The Demon King Territory did not think much of them, bringing only a few soldiers when they arrived.

So, although she still did not know why they were falling behind, she could barely sustain. ... Yet at this moment, the battlefield, which should have been relatively intense, began to advance steadily.

It seemed as if the Headless Knights and Black Knights, Little Demons, had lost their power to resist.

"Did something happen?"

The Gorgon Leader voiced her confusion, looking back at the three Sea Demon Leaders standing indifferently behind her... Mermaid, Naga, and Merfolk, they were not her subordinates. Their relationship felt more like a partnership.

The Gorgon provided them with territory to reside, and in return, the three Sea Demons brought their races’ pearls and treasures to the Gorgon. The cooperation was fairly pleasant.

There was no Sea Demon army on the battlefield because this was not part of their agreement.

"Is that... Yila Elkaras?"

The Mermaid Leader spoke, looking at the human youth flying high in the distance. She watched as the Gorgon Leader nodded in response and said, "You don’t recognize him?"

"I know him. He was a powerful figure similar to the Demon King and reportedly betrayed the empire."

The Gorgon said... During her mention of the "Demon King," she naturally referred not to Satan Ye but to his father—the Old Demon King, who died at Yila’s hands.

This attitude was surprisingly normal, something that should not appear in the descriptions of monsters towards Yila.

"Ah, I see..."

The Merfolk Leader responded, observing the swiftly retreating Demon King troops and the Yila floating high above. She had already realized... the Gorgon Leader merely regarded "the Governor" as an ordinary heroic unit.

The defeat of the monsters was not because of "the Governor’s" quantity but more about the Governor’s "power." This recognition by the three Sea Demons was even deeper than that of the Gorgon Leader before them.

In terms of strength, Yila Elkaras was indeed similar to the former Demon King. ... However, if facing Yila rather than the Old Demon King, then Yila’s terror could not be merely described by the word "strong."

"They... are they planning to stop fighting? Hmph~"

The Gorgon Leader chuckled lightly, but she was not overly pleased. After all, she knew that the Demon King Territory would dispatch more troops later, and it would not be just these few soldiers.

*"Afterward, we might consider escaping to another country, probably to the Duchy... You should pack up and come along?"*

To the Gorgon’s invitation, the three Sea Demon Leaders exchanged glances, and then the Naga Leader, similarly a "Snake" leader, nodded and responded, "Alright, then we’ll go together..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

After the three Sea Demons had walked far enough, the Mermaid Leader couldn’t help but say, "*Are we really going to escape to the Duchy? If we directly surrender, will Yila Elkaras and the Demon King spare us?*"

"Absolutely not."

The Merfolk Leader’s face darkened. Her delicate face was filled with fear for the future, her expression dazed as she said, "*We must escape! Escape now! Take our entire race and flee towards the Beastman Country immediately!*"

"Exactly, take the water route; board the ship first and abandon it to swim once pursued."

The Naga Leader said, swallowing hard, "*That fool still thinks she’s temporarily won—Yila appeared on the battlefield, and his allied forces began to disperse... doesn’t she understand what that means?*"

As the three hurriedly left the center of the territory and headed to their respective lands... a blazing bright light shone from the direction behind them, stretching their shadows long.

*It was over.*

*The Gorgon... was finished.*

"Amazing, really amazing, truly amazing."

"..."

The Gorgon Leader, still pondering their next evacuation, heard the female voice beside her. She turned to look at the Traveling Mage from the Duchy, who had recruited them, and responded, "Sure, but when the Demon King’s main force arrives, we’ll be powerless."

Admittedly, the Gorgon thought Wenresa Iluvita was praising their strength... However, it was somewhat accurate since only their significant power could make Yila take action.

Wenresa did not offer a direct reply but instead spiritedly looked toward Yila, saying, "Then the previously agreed reward will be yours; report to the Duchy, that’s all you need to do."

As Wenresa Iluvita stated this, her body gradually faded.

"Where are you going?"

The Gorgon Leader questioned in confusion.

"Ah, I’m going to find a spot with a good vantage point~ Thank you, Miss Medusa Dikles~"

After the polite thanks, the strange half-elf with a hood vanished from sight, leaving only a baffled Gorgon Leader... even her guards did not understand what Wenresa was talking about.

But soon, they realized something was wrong.

——————————

"Fourth Wing Pillar·Steel Demon·Wing Shatter!"

As the loud voice echoed across the silent battlefield, Yila, with imaginary Crimson Dragon wings and sci-fi-looking steel wings simultaneously appearing behind him, triggered the words as he activated.

Along with the Mana-filled Fourth Wing Pillar, belonging to the Mechanical Leader, Yila shattered it voluntarily. The Mana surged to the extreme, instantly materializing into a massive battle axe in his hands.

Specifically, it was a normally sized battle axe, with the axe blade extended by silver-grey Mana expanding five or six meters in length, making Yila, gripping the axe, look tiny.

Yila dived swiftly to the ground, then stretched quickly, dodging countless Petrification Light beams and Magic Attacks. At the same time... he hurled the battle axe fiercely.

"Whoosh!!!"

Accompanied by a piercing sound that split through the air, the rapidly spinning axe turned into a gleaming metallic disc, shooting straight toward the Gorgon’s forces.

"Ah!!!"

"Quick, dodge!"

"Incoming!"

The speed was too fast, causing the Gorgons to panic momentarily, but their chaos did not last long, as corpses and flesh would not panic or scream.

"Ahhhhhhhh!!!"

"Uwaaaah!!"

However, those wounded by the massive axe were not so lucky, ah no... their agony was also brief since it originated from the "Wing Shatter" power.

The flying axe cut through the Gorgon troops in the center, splitting all units in half. To describe it... it was like shaving a long strip of hair from the forehead to the nape. Afterward, the axe finally could not maintain its battle axe form.

"Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The enormous explosion, accompanied by the smoke that covered the view, and more fearful wailing echoed across. Subsequently... from somewhere in the smoke, a more despairing calm voice resonated—

"Third Wing Pillar·Medusa·Wing Shatter!"
